Nintendo Switch (Currently Plagued) - Here we shit post about the new Nintendo console, The Switch

[The Lawgiver]

Tooie is much more intensive than DK 64, with the game frequently making use of more advanced lighting techniques and large environments due to being an extremely late N64 game, even emulation up until somewhat recently had a lot of problems getting the game to fully work, so Nintendo might not even see it as worth it trying to get Tooie to run.

Tooie was heavily gimped on N64 hardware (or rather ungimped on xbox I guess) in other ways besides framerate as well, it's genuinely the worst version of the game. Kazooie's N64 version is fine, but playing either without the quality of life stuff the Xbox versions introduced is hard to adjust to.

Xbox ports of tooie are trash. they literally just dumped the game onto xbox after replacing all nintendo references with microsoft logos, and increased framerate in a way that literally caused the audio to fucking desync during cutscenes and character dialogue in some cases. A BIG part of the game and the only way to experience those as intended is through either playing the original or emulation.

Money and sponsorship for the games. Not that hard to figure out.

"Pay extra for our shitty online service and you get to play N64 and Genesis games!"

And people will just eat this shit up, just emulate it faggots

edit: LMAO AND BUY THE ORIGINAL CONTROLLERS, go fuck yourself Nintendo

The best part is you can't even buy the controllers if you don't subscribe to their shit online service.

Fuck off Nintendo.

So Microsoft lets Microsoft IPs Banjo Kazooie in Smash, allowed for Donkey Kong 64 to be released on the Wii U and is now allowing Banjo+Tootie on the Switch...

And Nintendautists are whining about not having Perfect Dark too?

 

[Dammit Mandrake!]

The controllers look slick. Will definitely be grabbing those.

Pretty happy that they limit it to Online members only. Scalpers have made it impossible to get stuff like this otherwise. I still won't forgive them for ruining Club Nintendo all those years ago. Those prizes were great.

I'm just real happy to see the Actraiser remake and Wreckfest port going to the Switch.

 

[Vault Boy]

Figures that they'd charge extra for N64 games, and that they wouldn't bother porting the 3DS remasters over.

Interesting that they got Banjo-Kazooie though, I guess other Rare titles are on the table (finger's crossed for DK64).

Tootie

retard alert

 

[Dammit Mandrake!]

Jet Force Gemini!

Jet Force Gemini!

You'd be better off with the Rare Replay version most likely, I doubt Nintendo would bother reworking the controls.

Bigger is better, that's why Banjo Nuts and Bolts is the best game of them all.

The niche vidya and anime voice actors I follow on Twitter bitching about the Hollywood casting of the Mario movie is great.

Also the more I think about it, the fact that there are new "first party" N64 controllers is kind of a big deal, assuming they are comparable to the originals in terms of feel (probably a big assumption).

Can you use these "retro" Switch controllers on PC? I assume yes, but it IS Nintendo we're talking about.

And yet, this already exists:

Fun thing to do: Mention that to any Nintendo consoomers you know and watch them squirm when you justify the existence of Sega Genesis Classics with how it's on a cartridge

This kind of bullshit makes me really glad that I bought my SNES and Genesis minis when I did, that way I can just mod and add in any ROMs that I want while Nintendo gets cucked.

 

[Broseph]

hope OG RE2 gets added to it.

The Dreamcast version is better.

 

[Vault Boy]

On a lighter note, at least there's a guarantee that the Switch will see an actual Paper Mario game in the future.

Sure, Origami King's the least terrible modern Paper Mario title, but the series is still in a dark place to me.

It’s Bluetooth, of course you can. Steam even supports the Switch Pro Controller.

Yeah, I knew the Pro Controller was compatible but wasn't sure about their other ones. Might actually be interested in picking an N64 one up now. The couple third party ones I've tried weren't all that great, and trying to play N64 games with other controllers never really feels right to me.

 

[whatever I feel like]

MS has literally no rights to DK64at all, aside from the Rare logo that appeared in the original version of the game. Gah, a lifetime of explaining this to people...
